Ping!

...where he told the director the movie was a good one.

Oh really?

Go Kristinn!

I want to know more about the FreeRepublic mailing list by which we get our marching orders. I keep asking my mailman but there's never anything from Command Headquarters in Fresno.

[Steve Van Doorn]

My orders must of gotten lost in the mail.

The image I have of the dixie chicks is a trio of trailer trash peroxide jobs tripping over a couple of cases of empty long necks, desperately trying to find that last, warm Lone Star.

After reading the article from Australia, Its pretty apparent that Maines is just a 31 year old doofus that still thinks like a rebeliant teen

I was home flipping channels this afternoon before my cat nap and came across the Dick-see Chix on Oprah.

They were as unremorseful, unapologetic, without grace or class as ever. On top of that they had not a clue one about foriegn affairs.

Natalie Mains looks absolutly out of shape and homely and they were all wearing gobs of makeup and were dressed like truckstop whores.

the diksee chix are losers..... what a shame, the music was kinda cool I turned off the tube, plugged in a CD and cranked up the antidote....

Toby Keith , "Shockin' Ya'll"

instant relief !

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Freerepublic silently but overwhelmingly affects the political and cultural chatter in every media and political corner in the USA and is seen by every pollster and pundit in the nation...even affecting things worldwide.

against the once popular country band Dixie Chicks

I love these words 'ONCE POPULAR' mentioned in the same sentence as Dixie Twits. If the group would have just kept their mouth shut instead of slamming the President, they would still be selling out at their concerts. Now their concerts are being canceled due to 'lack of interest'. I like their music but when I pay to hear their music, I sure as hell don't pay for their political comments.

[Stultis]

Here's the wepage for the event at The Center for American Progress. They have a link for video of the panel, but I can't figure out how to make it work.

The Ditsy chicks are irrelevant anyway.

[antiunion person]

The Dixie Twits' new album is labeled "UNDERGROUND". Perfect title. They should go underground and hide forever. True Americans refuse to listen to their rederick (sp?). Why pay money to see them, when going to a Toby Keith concert or buying his cds are more worth the money and time.

Most excellent movie trailer! Mentions and shows the name FreeRepublic.com about halfway through. That trailer will be shown in every movie house in the country. You couldn't in your wildest dreams pay for that type of exposure.

[L.N. Smithee]

Talk about cajones: FreeRepublic.com's Kristinn Taylor's got 'em.

Now the rest of the country knows what we have known for years. Good on ya, Kris.

The pattern of cluelessness about FR is displayed once again in the Center for American Progress' synopsis of the panel discussion when they make reference to "Christian Taylor":

---

Christian Taylor disagreed with most of these remarks. He denounced what he called “the elitist attitudes” expressed by the band, arguing that their criticism of President Bush does not appeal to the average country music fan. He also denied that the band’s members received a disproportionate amount of criticism because of their gender. When his fellow bloggers [FR is NOT a blog, maddoggit!] were accused by audience members of bias, he said that “politics has been rough and nasty well before FreeRepublic.com.”

Free Republic You Magnificent Bastard!

apologies to Carl Rove

[Jim Robinson]

"to see it for free."

LOL!! Great job Kristinn!!

[Tamzee]

And the article on the U.S.News and World Report website links directly to Free Republic, and goes to this thread below... be prepared for more trolls outraged that their beloved twits are dissed so thoroughly.
